Abyssal Battlefield
Abyssal Battlefields are the Abyssal sites for Capsuleer Day XXI. The sites come in four tiers and require special event filaments. The event filaments are manufactured by capsuleers using the blueprints and materials obtained from event sites like Desolate Collapsed Conduit (hacking) and Treacherous Collapsed Conduit (combat), the Abyssal hacking sites and the Abyssal sites themself.
The naming of the filaments functions similarly to the regular Abyssal filaments with the first part indicating the tier and the second part indicating the weather (Electric, Exotic, etc) having the same effects as regular filaments.
Time and space limits
- Only one filament is required to create the conduit to enter the Abyssal battlefields, regardless of whether one ship or two are entering.
- Every Abyssal deadspace pocket has a 30-minute time limit to kill the battleship and its cohorts that lie within, with a guaranteed ship and pod loss should the timer expire.
- To complete the first and only deadspace pocket, you must kill the commanding battleship to unlock the Origin Conduit.
- The boundary around the event battlefields appears with a blue graphical effect which becomes more obvious the closer you fly toward it. Unlike the red boundary in ordinary abyssal deadspace beyond which the player's ship will explode, this blue boundary will teleport the player to the opposite side of the arena.
- Unlike regular Abyss sites the event sites have only one weather type per tier.
Clouds
Like Abyssal deadspace, the event pockets may contain Abyssal clouds, listed below.
Anti-Tachyon cloud
Purple-ish cloud that provides the following effects to all ships inside:
- 100% ship inertia increase
- 67% ship speed decrease
- 100% signature radius decrease
Tachyon cloud
White cloud that provides the following effects to all ships inside:
- 100% ship inertia decrease
- 67% ship speed increase
- 100% signature radius increase
Sites
The sites come in 2 variants, either Triglavian or Drifter.

Tier 2
Requires a Vicious Electrical Filament. Difficulty is significantly scaled up from T1, both battleship types have a tracking value of 15 (can track cruisers with ease). Sentries deal high constant damage with a damage falloff of roughly 70-80 km. They spawn near the pocket boundaries so long range weapons or drones are suggested to destroy them. They spawn heavily damaged with 0 omni resists so actually destroying them is not a problem once in range.
